Lu Jin looked at Gu Nianzhi, touched. He thought to himself that his girl was so nice. She even had to diss her own mother for him …
He held Gu Nianzhi's hand and advised her seriously, "Qin Yaoguang is your mother after all. It's better not to have a public falling out with her. Leave her to me to deal with, lest others say you're unfilial."
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
Lu Yuan: "…"
"…"
The other three people in the room fell into a strange silence.
None of them expected to hear the words "filial" or "unfilial" from Lu Jin's mouth.
Because Lu Jin had gone so far on the path of science, they often felt that he had exceeded the ethical boundaries of ordinary people.
How could such vulgar words as filial or unfilial come out of his mouth? It was so out of place …
Lu Jin turned his head and saw that they were all staring at him. He glared back and said, "What's wrong? Am I wrong? No matter what, Nianzhi is Qin Yaoguang's daughter. Even if Qin Yaoguang is a heinous traitor, if Nianzhi personally deals with her, do you believe that there will always be someone who will come out and fight back? "
In fact, he felt a little guilty and had to cover it up with a point of view that he didn't even care about.
Lu Yuan rubbed his forehead, feeling really tired.
In front of Gu Nianzhi, Lu Jin could be considered an extremely meticulous and filial father. He could even consider the smallest details.
"… You said you're a stickler, so why bother with those people? If they want to say it, let them say it. Who cares about them? "Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly.
"That won't do. Even the contrarians can't say that about my girl." Lu Jin waved his hand without hesitation. "I can't give the contrarians any opportunity."
"My girl is the best! Everything was fine! Anywhere is fine! — No rebuttals accepted! "
He defended Gu Nianzhi righteously and would rather face all the darkness and slander himself.
Gu Nianzhi could cry to begin with, but now she was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears. She hugged Lu Jin's arm and cried.
Huo Shaoheng couldn't take it anymore. He walked over and took the tissue that Lu Jin had specially made on the coffee table and handed it over. "It's the first day of the New Year. Why are you crying? Aren't you Huaxia people very particular about auspiciousness and good luck? "
"This is called crying of joy. You Soviet, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." Lu Jin righteously took the tissue from Huo Shaoheng and personally wiped Gu Nianzhi's tears.
His movements were slow and gentle, as if he was performing the most delicate biological experiment.
Gu Nianzhi cried and laughed at Lu Jin's words. She was so excited that she couldn't think normally. It was only when Huo Shaoheng sat down beside her that she calmed down.
Huo Shaoheng didn't need to say or do anything. As long as he was by her side, she would have endless courage and confidence.
Gu Nianzhi cleared her throat.
She had cried so many times today that her voice was really hoarse.
However, she still said very cautiously to Lu Jin in a hoarse voice, "Dad, this isn't a matter of filial piety, nor is it a matter of facing the contrarians. To me, this isn't the point."
"… But it's the main point to me …" Lu Jin muttered, but he immediately nodded at Gu Nianzhi. "Then what do you think is the main point?"
"My point is, we have to take care of Qin Yaoguang, but we have to use legal methods to take care of her. I don't want Dad to take the risk of breaking the law for me. "
"Your daughter, I, am a lawyer. If you break the law, how can I continue to be a lawyer? I might as well ask the Bar Association to revoke my law license. "
Gu Nianzhi used her career as a bet that Lu Jin wouldn't ignore her interests and career future.
Lu Jin didn't buy it and said unhappily, "How did I break the law? What did I break the law about Ishihara Baisan? Tell me? Did I force him to plagiarize? Or did I personally cut his stomach with a knife?! "
Gu Nianzhi patted the back of his hand and comforted him. "Of course Ishihara Baisan did a good job. But if it weren't for … Mr. Peter helping you deal with the aftermath and the other party hiring a powerful lawyer, you could still have fought the lawsuit. "
Lu Jin glanced at Huo Shaoheng and didn't say anything else.
Gu Nianzhi thought she had persuaded him, so she smiled and said, "Okay, then I won't celebrate the New Year. I'll start preparing now. When the court session starts again on the 15th of January, I'll try to win it in one go!"
Lu Jin's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but get excited. "Don't think it's so easy! Do you know how much wealth and power the Qin Group has? Do you know how much prestige Qin Yaoguang has internationally? Do you know how many lives she's saved over the years?! "
In other words, if she wanted to use legal means to deal with Qin Yaoguang, Gu Nianzhi would first have to face the entire Qin Corporation.
Gu Nianzhi curled her lips and said confidently, "… If it wasn't for the fact that we wanted to bring down the entire Qin Corporation, would we need me, the great lawyer Gu, to step in?"
Her confident and narcissistic demeanor was exactly the same as Lu Jin's.
Huo Shaoheng and Lu Yuan looked at each other and smiled. They relaxed.
Lu Jin's eyes were still flickering, but he didn't continue to argue with Gu Nianzhi. He just nodded. "Okay, I believe my girl is the best!"
Gu Nianzhi observed his expression and realized that Lu Jin still didn't completely believe her.
But that wasn't important. Lu Jin would believe her when he went to court.
As for whether it was "unfilial" for her biological daughter to bring her biological mother to justice, Gu Nianzhi didn't care at all.
Subconsciously, she didn't treat Qin Yaoguang as her biological mother at all.
It was just like how Qin Yaoguang didn't treat her as her biological daughter.
As for giving birth to her, so what?
During the four years that she had used her as a lab rat in her experiments, Gu Nianzhi felt that she had already repaid all of Qin Yaoguang's fertility.
Just like Nezha, she had already "cut the flesh and returned the mother".
..
For the next 14 days, Gu Nianzhi didn't go anywhere. She hid in the study alone and began to study all the information about the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital Group.
But after 14 days, she didn't have much of an effect.
This was because the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital Group was a listed company.
Even if there had been anything illegal about it, it would definitely have been cleared up when it was preparing to go public.
What should have been destroyed had been destroyed, and what should have been made up for had been made up for.
It was indeed not easy to catch them from the company's management.
But Gu Nianzhi was a person who would become braver the more she was defeated.
If it was too easy for her to find flaws, she wouldn't even believe it herself.
On the 15th day of the first lunar month, Gu Nianzhi finally put down all the information about the Qin Corporation's Private Hospital Group and came out to celebrate the Lantern Festival with Lu Jin, Lu Yuan, and Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng hadn't been at her house for the past ten days. Instead, he had returned to the Soviet Consulate General in C City.
He had only flown from C City to the imperial capital today.
Lu Jin had also been closely watched by Lu Yuan for the past ten days. He hadn't had any chance to go out and move around freely.
He was also able to keep his cool. Besides, he wanted to see how Gu Nianzhi would fight the lawsuit related to Qin Yaoguang. He also wanted to take the initiative to stand up for Gu Nianzhi when necessary, so he put on a relaxed attitude and cherished the days he spent with Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi washed up and put on the light cherry pink Chanel cashmere skirt and coat that Lu Jin had ordered for her. She put on her high boots and excitedly got into the car with Lu Jin, Lu Yuan, and Huo Shaoheng. She planned to go to the most high-end and mysterious clubhouse in the imperial capital, Xiangxuehai, for dinner and to enjoy the lanterns.
Gu Nianzhi had been to this place before, and so had Huo Shaoheng. Lu Yuan had gone there to discuss business with someone. The only person he hadn't been to was Lu Jin.
However, Lu Jin wasn't very interested. He muttered, "… I might as well barbecue myself at home …"
As for the lanterns, Lu Jin only needed to look at it on the Internet.
Gu Nianzhi ignored him and said, "Dad, I haven't seen the lantern festival here yet."
Lu Jin immediately changed his tune and said with a smile, "Okay then, let's go see the lanterns!"
Lu Yuan and Huo Shaoheng were already used to it. One of them was driving, and the other was sitting in the front passenger seat. They didn't speak.
Gu Nianzhi and Lu Jin were chatting in the back seat.
"… Dad, this invitation was sent by Young Master He. It's a free VIP card. It's a waste not to go."
Gu Nianzhi smiled and showed Lu Jin Xiang Xuehai's VIP card.
He Zhichu was quite generous. He gave her four VIP cards at once, one of which was a long-term VIP card. She could go in the future for free.
The other three VIP cards were only valid once.
Lu Jin glanced at them and nodded. "That's more like it."
He asked again, "Will He Zhichu and He Chengjian go today?"
"Young Master He sent me a text message saying that General He won't go because he has to attend the army's Lantern Festival performance and won't go to Xiang Xuehai."
Gu Nianzhi pulled out the text messages He Zhichu had sent her over the past few days and showed them to Lu Jin. She said, "Actually, Young Master He won't go either. He said that he's on duty in place of his colleagues today and asked Cousin Xie to help entertain us."
"It's the Lantern Festival today. What kind of shift is he on?" Lu Jin pursed his lips disdainfully. "It doesn't matter if he goes to his shift or not. He has the final say on when to work and when to take a break. "
"Dad!" Gu Nianzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She quickly covered Lu Jin's mouth. "If you don't expose it, we're still good friends."
Lu Jin pulled her palm down and smiled. "I'll give my girl face. My mouth is sealed today."
As Lu Jin spoke, he made a "zipper" gesture with his other hand to show that his mouth was sealed.
Gu Nianzhi smiled like a flower. "Dad, so you're not talking to me anymore?"
"I'm an exception with you." Lu Jin patted Gu Nianzhi's shoulder and gave the front seat a smug look.
Lu Yuan happened to be looking at the car behind him through the rearview mirror. When he saw Lu Jin's smug and arrogant gaze, he almost vomited blood.
He didn't want to say it at first, but now he couldn't help but say, "… There's a car following us. It's been following us since we left the apartment complex."
